A blend including phytosterol together with saturated fatty acids and/or saturated ratty alcohols is disclosed.

Certain polyamide molding blends containing carbon black and nigrosine are described which have greater elongation and impact strength than blends of such polyamide and carbon black alone.

A polymeric blend containing (a) copolymer of lactone with conjugated diene or monovinylarene or both conjugated diene and monovinylarene, (b) acrylic ester polymer, and (c) coumarone-indene resin. A polymeric blend as described above also containing (d) conjugated diene monovinylarene teleblock copolymer.

Particular amorphous thermoplastic polyamide copolymers can be combined with semicrystalline thermoplastic polyamides to produce molding resins having a wide variety of applications depending on the relative amounts of the amorphous copolymer and the crystallizable polyamide present.

Co-vulcanizable fluoroelastomer blends of tetrafluoroethylene/perfluoro-(methylvinyl-ether)/cure-site monomer terpolymer and hexafluoropropylene oxide/cure-site monomer dipolymer.

Resin blends that are strong adhesives to various substrates and especially to polar substrates. These blends comprise (a) a graft copolymer of a polyethylene backbone grafted with at least one grafting monomer comprising one or more polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids or acid derivatives such as acid anhydrides, acid esters, salts, amides, imides and the like, (b) a LDPE, a linear low density polyethylene, or an ethylene-unsaturated ester copolymer and (c) a poly (.alpha.-o...

The present invention is directed to a polyol blend comprising: (a) from about 5 to about 30% by weight of a member selected from the group consisting of 1,4-butanediol, ethylene glycol, and mixtures thereof, and (b) from about 70 to about 95% by weight of a polyester polyol produced by reacting from 10 to 60 parts by weight of adipic acid with from 40 to 90 parts by weight of a polyoxyethylene glycol having a molecular weight of from 150 to 680, the parts of adipic acid and polyoxyethylene glyc...

Disclosed are blends of two or more polyetherimides. Such blends generally exhibit a high glass transition temperature, e.g., from about 125.degree. to about 210.degree. C., which makes the blends particularly suitable for automotive and appliance applications.

Disclosed are novel blends of peroxides that have melting points of about 5.degree. C. and lower. The blends consist essentially of (1) t-butyl cumyl peroxide, (2) bis(.alpha.-t-butylperoxyisopropyl)benzene, and (3) dicumyl peroxide.

Novel compositions comprising poly(arylene sulfide) and amorphous polyamide resins are provided. Method for improving the impact strength and shrinkage or warpage of poly(arylene sulfide) resins is also provided.
